What an excellent article in the Guardian. It reveals the ABD as the minority group that it really is.

Of course it is.

Have you seen any majority groups lately?

Indeed I noticed that. So with only 2,500/3,000 active member that makes the effect they are having even more impressive. Well done ABD Rich...

Well done ABD

Is it me being cynical and warped again, but has anyone noticed that this article follows close on the heels of the M.O.S and yesterday's "Sun" articles quoting ex Chief Constable Joslin (Daddy of Scams - and now Daddy of "speedophiles" as all 3 of his "I know they are good drivers!" children now have 3-6 penalty points) saying that the "Speed Camera proliferation has gone too far!" In short, he is now saying what the ABD and all the guys on here and elsewhere are saying!

We could be getting the pro-lobby a bit hot under the collar then

It's an increasingly hot debate and one in which the media try to line up organisations as being in opposition. In fact most of them have the same goals just difference of opinion about how to get there.

The ABD want safer roads. To try to link them with other 'extreme' groups is pretty lame.

Was that article supposed to be 'news' or 'opinion'?

Well the labour party is probably a minority group if you count the number of paid up subscribers to it, but it's running the fecking country...

The Grauniad sells less copies daily than the Financial Times.

Its a minority publication so the worry is somewhat lessened...
